Free-range Food

I went to a lovely lecture tonight on the meaning of food in a fast-food culture and on some ideas of healthier, more sustainable farming. The lecture was good.
HOWEVER:
I have a Public Service Announcement.
"When in a public place, PLEASE leash your children!
(Or I will kill them, and eat them.)"
Nothing is more distracting, more annoying, more ignorant, and more likely to put other people in a homicidal rage than YOUR inability to control the rambunctious, noisy fruit of your loins. If you want to go someplace where children might not be the best idea, get a baby-sitter. Or better yet, don't reproduce in the first place. God knows that the world won't mourn if your genes don't make it into the pool.
I hate children. I HAAAAAATTTE children. Yeah, that means your "widdle Pweshush, too." Hate 'em; hate 'em all.
And I hate most "adults'" complete incompetence and idiocy and ignorance in raising children. Look, I wouldn't trust most American adults with a goldfish, much less an advance mammalian pet such as a dog or a rat... and the idea of people breeding makes me run to pray to the porcelain god.
(Oh, and by the way, in case anyone's curious or doesn't already know, Ritalin, Adderal, and et cetera are NOT the answer.)
I understand you think your kids are cute and precocious and that everyone should love them, but you are wrong, and I don't want to be jailed on a murder charge just because you can't caretake properly.
Keep your offspring away from me, and I won't try to have my rats eat your face, 'kay?

Date: 2004-04-02 08:29 am (UTC)I wholeheartedly agree with your rant...actually, I've been wanting to post a similar one, but you beat me to it. *might still, anyway*
And you need to check out the Misanthropic Bitch's page, if you haven't already. You'd love a lot of her rants about kids. I know I do xDDD
Also, check out the FMA LJ community...more hilarious icons. There's one that made me go *snrk* in the computer lab - it's Winly standing on the balcony at her house, looking angry, and the text is, "You want an automail WHAT?!"
*dies*
